If you say so... I don’t recall ever saying the Iranians followed thier blog, that’s a stupid idea you’ve thrown up for some reason to support your post.... was mearly pointing out how easily that pair would of been to find in a country that likely tracks the movements of Westerners in it’s...

The wouldn’t have needed to look real hard for them.... would of known they’d entered the country when they crossed the border, and i doubt there’s many Troopies driving around Iran with surfboards strapped to the roof of them....they would have stuck out like dogs balls

having followed this couples adventures for quite a while now and seen how often they use a drone in thier videos, odds are they very well could of been flying a drone, but being none of us were there to see for ourselves, everyone can only speculate as to how thier detention occurred.....but...

My last Landcruiser spent a heap of time in the 10 years I owned it (vehicle was 13 years old when i sold it) visiting various beaches here in Australia, and hence got plenty of salt and sand on and in it....all I ever do is flush out the entire underbody and wheel wells etc with heaps of fresh...

Tonight’s news says the couple are back in Australia already, doubt they’ll get the vehicle back but you never know. They don’t want to comment on what happened to them as they don’t want to jeopardise the negotiations currently going on to try and get the other Aussie lady held there...

Tv news reports here in Australia are saying Mark and Jolie have now been released from detention in Iran and all charges are dropped.....good news for them and much sooner then I thought would be the case.

the Australian Government is already well aware of thier predicament and working hard behind the scenes for thier release, but being there is already another Aussie in detention there since November, I wouldn't hold my breath for a quick release. This couple is all over mainstream media here in...

Nice read and pics...interesting your comment regarding Big Red looking little, i watched a YouTube video earlier tonight that showed the dune with a big cutting at the summit of it, thought to myself, wow look at the damage / change done from so many visitors going there now...looked very...
